رWhen I decided to study in Malaysia, I was looking for a university that offered quality education along with a comfortable student life. After extensive research, I chose City University Malaysia, and I have never regretted this decision. My journey here has been rich with knowledge, filled with challenges, yet incredibly enjoyable.

Academic Experience

From my very first day at the university, I noticed that the teaching approach was interactive and practical. Instead of long theoretical lectures, we engaged in discussions, presentations, and case studies that reflected real-world scenarios. I majored in Business Administration, and I found that the curriculum was designed to align with industry requirements. One of the aspects I appreciated the most was that many professors had real-world experience, making the learning process more practical and insightful.

The university also offers numerous workshops and hands-on training, which helped me develop my skills before graduation. Additionally, group projects allowed me to build strong relationships with my peers and understand the importance of teamwork.

Campus Life

Life at City University is exciting and dynamic. There are many student clubs, including the Entrepreneurship Club, Photography Club, and various sports activities. Personally, I joined the Leadership and Personal Development Club, which had a significant impact on shaping my confidence and communication skills.

The campus is well-equipped with modern facilities, including a state-of-the-art library, well-equipped laboratories, and cozy cafés that provide the perfect environment for studying and relaxing. There are also sports halls and recreational areas, allowing students to maintain a balanced lifestyle between studies and social activities.

Accommodation and Transportation

For accommodation, I chose to live in a nearby student residence, which was comfortable and budget-friendly. The university’s student housing is fully equipped with all essential amenities, including high-speed internet, cleaning services, and study lounges.

In terms of transportation, commuting to and from the university was quite convenient. Public transport options such as the monorail, buses, and Grab (a ride-hailing app similar to Uber) made it easy to explore Kuala Lumpur’s malls, restaurants, and tourist attractions during weekends.

Challenges and Adaptation

Initially, I faced some challenges, such as adapting to a new environment and communicating with students from diverse backgrounds. However, over time, I learned the importance of being open-minded and embracing cultural diversity. The university provides academic and psychological support services, which helped me adjust smoothly.
